Storing Chipboard Embellishments - With Imaginarium Designs!

Throughout July the Imaginarium Designs Team are showcasing how we store our chipboard.

 

I store my chipboard in a variety of ways. I have a small desk container with 6 compartments that I store my smaller chipboard pieces after they have been removed from their larger chipboard sheet. This sits on my desk as I craft and is easy to access. I then have an A4 sized flat plastic container with lots of my much loved and regularly used chipboard pieces (my 'go-to ' container). It often also has other pieces that I have selected/collected for use on upcoming projects. Lastly I have a pizza box and 12x12 plastic storage container for the bulk of my chipboard. In the pizza box I store phrases and words on layers of white 12x12 paper so it is easy to see the titles. In the 12x12 plastic container I have the rest of the chipboard - It is a bit tricky to sort through but I usually remember what is where.

This is what works for me!! How do you store your chipboard??

You Go Girl - With Scrapping Clearly!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using lots of Heidi Swapp products available in the  Scrapping Clearly Store.

I've started with a sheet of white cardstock and added a strip of Magnolia Jane patterned paper. I added a strip of the MJ gold washi along the edge of the patterned paper and the black and white striped washi along the edge of the white cardstock. I painted some gold Color Shine on the alphas I wanted to use for my title. And I sprayed some of the Color Magic paper goods to use as embellishments.  

I've also added some torn washi in this corner. I've kept this page black, white and gold - a simple yet classy combination!

A simple tag and cluster around my photo kept this page stylish. 

I dipped the ends of the twine from the tag into the gold color shine and left to dry. Lastly I spattered gold and black Color Shine across my page.

Scrapping Clearly products I've used include

Star - With Scrapping Clearly!

Today I have a scrapbook page to share with you made using lots of Heidi Swapp products available in the  Scrapping Clearly Store.

I started by layering some Magnolia Jane papers down the centre of some white cardstock. Then I created a mat for my photos. I sprayed a pressed paper frame with gold ColorShine and left to dry. These frames are quite think and take a lot of spray so they take a while to dry - overnight is best. I then cut the frame in half and attached to each side of my photos. 

I added lots of elements from the ephemera pack around my photos and across the page. I used staples to attach the acetate and velum elements. 

Some paper flowers and word stickers from my stash were perfect to finish the page. Lastly I spattered some Gold ColorShine across my page.

Scrapbooking and Cards - With Imaginarium Designs!

Today I'm sharing a scrapbook page and 2 cards made using lots of gorgeous Imaginarium Designs chipboard. This was a recent class I taught at Seriously Scrapbooking using the Echo Park "Just Be You" paper collection and raindrops stencil.

I started by using a yellow ink and stencilling in the bottom left and top right corners of my background white cardstock. Then I added paint splatters in coordinating colours across the cardstock (again mainly from bottom left to top right). While this was drying I cut out all the triangular elements from the "follow your heart" paper. I distressed the edges of each of these triangles then adhered it to my background in the same heart shaped pattern (you could even sew these on if you like!). 

I clustered die cut embellishments and chipboard around my photo. I've painted all of my chipboard a navy blue. 

I added another embellishment cluster in the bottom left corner of my page.  

As well as the scrapbook page I created 2 cards. Both cards contains a painted and stenciled background as well as die cut embellishments, fussy cut words, and painted chipboard.

Pocket Page Scrapbooking - With Imaginarium Designs!

Today I'm sharing some pocket page scrapbooking (Week 28 part 2 for my "Schultz Family 2016" Project Life Album) made using lots of gorgeous Imaginarium Designs chipboard. This was a recent class I taught at Seriously Scrapbooking. The photos were from a family holiday last year to the Gold Coast - I'm still trying to catch up on my PL from way back then!!

Here is a close up of the LHS. I've used the Echo Park "Just Be You" paper collection and hearts stencil. I love using the journalling cards 12x12 papers from any collection - they give you lots of options for PL cards or can be fussy cut and used as embellishments. 

For this card I've used my Prima Watercolor confections (Tropicals) to paint the background. Then I've used a navy ink and the geometric hearts stencil. Then I've fussy cut clouds and hot air balloons from the patterned paper and attached to the card. I've painted all of my chipboard a navy blue - keeping it all the same colour unifies the page.

Here is a close up of the RHS. I've added a selection of fussy cut elements and painted chipboard clusters to cards on this page. I mixed some of the paint (pink, yellow, green, blue) separately with texture paste then swiped it across the stencil giving a rainbow effect on one of the cards 

For this card I added some paint splatters, a strip of patterned paper, fussy cut hot air balloons and a painted chipboard word element.
